Hi everyone, This email is a follow up on the problem identified in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/31888. This problem first shown as a result of a GCC compilation for BPF that ends converting a condition based decision tree, into a logic based one (making use of XOR), in order to compute expected return value for the function. This issue was also reported in https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=114523 and contains both the original reproducer pattern and some other that also fails within clang. I have included a patch that contains a possible fix (I wonder) and a test case that reproduces the issue in attach. The execution of the test without the included fix results in: VERIFIER LOG: ============= Global function reg32_0_reg32_xor_reg_01() doesn't return scalar. Only those are supported. 0: R1=ctx() R10=fp0 ; asm volatile (" \ @ verifier_bounds.c:755 0: (85) call bpf_get_prandom_u32#7 ; R0_w=scalar() 1: (bf) r6 = r0 ; R0_w=scalar(id=1) R6_w=scalar(id=1) 2: (b7) r1 = 0 ; R1_w=0 3: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r1 ; R1_w=0 R10=fp0 fp-8_w=0 4: (bf) r2 = r10 ; R2_w=fp0 R10=fp0 5: (07) r2 += -8 ; R2_w=fp-8 6: (18) r1 = 0xffff8e8ec3b99000 ; R1_w=map_ptr(map=map_hash_8b,ks=8,vs=8) 8: (85) call bpf_map_lookup_elem#1 ; R0=map_value_or_null(id=2,map=map_hash_8b,ks=8,vs=8) 9: (55) if r0 != 0x0 goto pc+1 11: R0=map_value(map=map_hash_8b,ks=8,vs=8) R6=scalar(id=1) R10=fp0 fp-8=mmmmmmmm 11: (b4) w1 = 0 ; R1_w=0 12: (77) r6 >>= 63 ; R6_w=scalar(smin=smin32=0,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=1,var_off=(0x0; 0x1)) 13: (ac) w1 ^= w6 ; R1_w=scalar() R6_w=scalar(smin=smin32=0,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=1,var_off=(0x0; 0x1)) 14: (16) if w1 == 0x0 goto pc+2 ; R1_w=scalar(smin=0x8000000000000001,umin=umin32=1) 15: (16) if w1 == 0x1 goto pc+1 ; R1_w=scalar(smin=0x8000000000000002,umin=umin32=2) 16: (79) r0 = *(u64 *)(r0 +8) invalid access to map value, value_size=8 off=8 size=8 R0 min value is outside of the allowed memory range processed 16 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 0 total_states 1 peak_states 1 mark_read 1 ============= The test collects a random number and shifts it right by 63 bits to reduce its range to (0,1), which will then xor to compute the value of w1, checking if the value is either 0 or 1 after. By analysing the code and the ranges computations, one can easily deduce that the result of the XOR is also within the range (0,1), however: 11: (b4) w1 = 0 ; R1_w=0 12: (77) r6 >>= 63 ; R6_w=scalar(smin=smin32=0,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=1,var_off=(0x0; 0x1)) 13: (ac) w1 ^= w6 ; R1_w=scalar() R6_w=scalar(smin=smin32=0,smax=umax=smax32=umax32=1,var_off=(0x0; 0x1)) ^ |___ No range is computed for R1 The verifier seems to act pessimistically and will only compute a range for dst_reg, if the src_reg is a known value. This happens in: -- verifier.c:13700 -- if (!src_known && opcode != BPF_ADD && opcode != BPF_SUB && opcode != BPF_AND) { __mark_reg_unknown(env, dst_reg); return 0; } Is this really a requirement for XOR (and OR) ? Unless I am missing some corner case and based on the logic presented in tnum_xor (and even in tnum_or), it seems to me that it is safe to compute a new range for both XOR (and OR) in case both operands are not known. Looking forward to your comments.
